For the last month or so, I got a metre strip on the screen just like watermark! It shows some percentage from 0% to 100%. Sometimes, in weeks, as the percentage increases, the screen goes black and revives only after 4-5 hours! Re-starting the computer doesn't help either!!!! It remains black!
This time when this happened, I waited for two hours, then I push the + button from the + and - buttons on the front of monitor (I think they are meant for controlling visibility of the screen! ) AND the screen came back to normal!!! Can someone tell me, what is this watermark and how can I get rid of it? I tried to take its picture by clicking on "print screen" but it didn't show on the captured image!!!! I tried to draw the picture, though its not the exact replica of the actual image that appears, but it can help you understand and recognize what it looks like....I'm uploading it: woman is the mirror in which man sees the reflection of his own self, his own dormant and hidden powers of genius when she comes and stands before him A woman is a meaning to life !

Dear Erumji,

Pls collect a spare monitor from any of your friends for five minutes and do the 2nd experiment. Because before formatting your HD it is mandatory. Otherwise you will not be able to understand whether it is a CPU or Monitor prob.

If I have understood
this meter is the contrast meter ..... the question is "why it break down at one go ? " Logically : one composant electronic which is failing .... Weld ? Condenser ? I don't think that is one virus ,because I never heard that ... Devji
